Hi, Michael.

Keep this shortcut handy as your Final Authority:
<http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/>

That's the HTML Specification. It is good for
reference, and I find it easier sometimes than
looking stuff up on a book. But you will find
clearer explanations and examples in other places --
the HTML spec is mainly to see what's legal.

Skip to the very bottom of that page and you'll
find links to the elements and the attributes.
The link for an element will show you a list
of all the attributes that element can have.

Refer to Jay's example, and note that that table,
tr, td and "a" are defined in HTML as "elements",
while align, border and width are defined
as "attributes" of those elements. An attribute
always tells you something about the element,
that's why it appears inside the element.

The element names always come right after the
less-than sign, and the attribute names always
come right before an equals-sign.
The attribute values always have quotes around them.

Happy hunting,

Vic
